Paint Correction
Often known as "buffing," the correct term for the process of restoring paint is called Paint Correction. This process will bring your paint to the best possible condition by slowly removing scratching, swirl marks, fading, water spots, and other defects from your paint
What Causes Swirls & Scratches?
Improper Wash Technique
Without knowing the proper procedure and process, you can cause defects in your paint with only a single wash.
Bug Guts, Tar, Sap and Poo
All of the above can wreak absolute havoc if not removed immediately. If left on too long, the chemical structure breaks down to etch the paint, leaving a permanent and non-removable mark.
Automated Car Washes
Brushes push dirt into the paint, marring the clear coat paint which gradually deepen over time, gradually dulling the shine.
Hard Water and Minerals
Mineral deposits can form from water evaporated, which can leave permanent etching on paint and glass.
Contaminated Mitts or Towels
Mitts, towels and brushes are detailers tools: if they are uncared for and become dirty, they will ruin your vehicles finish extremely easily.
Chemical Exposure
Your vehicle comes into contact with many elements. For example; fuel from the gas station, if left on the paint will damage it beyond repair.
Not all scratches can be removed, deep scratching that penetrates the clear coat or base coat paint can only be repaired by repainting.
